Sara Lindqvist Quotes in The Magician (1958)

Sara Lindqvist: Quiet. He's predicting the future.

Tubal: Quiet, quiet, quiet. I see a light. Now it's been put out. It's dark. I hear sweet words of love. No, I can't repeat them. My sense of decency forbids me. A young man rides at full gallop.

Tubal is but her humble messenger.
